Abstract

This paper presents a novel general purpose data monitoring software for remote visualization. This tool can be used broadly in practical applications to record, trace, and display measurement information from any data source. It covers a wide range of use cases through the support of various chart types such as line graphs, pie charts, and bar graphs. Although designed as general purpose monitoring tool, it was specially intended for dedicated applications as embedded devices with limited resources with possibly no graphical output interface. The underlying idea is to develop a tool that can process data from any device, completely independent from its hardware, operating system, or software. Next to data monitoring, it can be used as central recording platform where the data will be evaluated later. This feature is especially useful during the development and debugging phase. Measurements, in particular erroneous values, can be easily detected using visual support.
